In groups of 1 or 2 please select one of the following pioneering filmmakers. Research this filmmaker, take notes in your notebook about what the artist did that was important to film history, provide basic biographical information, and discuss the artist's work in general. You should write out a VO (Voice Over) script of no longer than 1 page for your narration.
You may select from:
Thomas Edison
W.K.L. Dickson
The Lumiere Brothers
Charles Pathe
Birt Acres
R.W. Paul
George Melies
Cecil Hepworth
Edwin S. Porter
Leon Gaumont
Alice Guy-Blache
Mack Sennett
D. W. Griffith
Oscar Micheaux
Your project should use still photography (I suggest using the internet and save some JPGs to your desktop)--(you may also use film when and if available) Photography should be imported into iMovie. Your short film should run no more than a minute. Use titles, play with editing and transition effects, and use a voice-over. Provide end and title credits with your name(s) displayed.
